With the release of macOS 26.4, Apple is now warning users who it believes are about to paste malicious code into Terminal. The prompt is the latest blow to cybercriminals’ newest and, honestly, more desperate attack vector of getting unsuspecting Mac users to infect themselves.

One of the key features of MacBooks is the care Apple takes over color calibration. That’s great when you’re using your MacBook, but things can change as soon as you plug it into an external monitor, when you can see markedly different colors.

That’s because most monitor companies don’t tune their colors in the same way Apple does. But BenQ does exactly that with its latest MA series monitors …

Starting with the 2026 season, Apple TV has entered an exclusive deal to broadcast Formula 1 in the United States, including all Grand Prix, qualifying and practice sessions in the United States.

Apple unveiled the MacBook Neo earlier this month, and in my opinion – it completely breaks the MacBook lineup as we knew it. If you’re someone who previously bought a MacBook Air, and you don’t need 16GB of RAM for heavier multitasking – why wouldn’t you buy the MacBook Neo now?

In my eyes, the MacBook Neo is just as good of a general purpose laptop as the MacBook Air was, and besides more RAM, a much faster processor (though still a thermally limited one), and a larger display, it doesn’t feel like MacBook Air has much going for it – at least for now. Here’s how I’d improve it.

It’s never been easier for spammers and scammers to get access to your personal data, and this is particularly dangerous during tax season.

With data brokers providing easy access to your phone number, email address, physical address – and even sensitive data like your social security number – tax season can be peak time for fraud. Fortunately, there’s a simple way to reduce the risk.

Welcome to 9to5Mac’s top stories of the week, where we recap the biggest news in the Apple world every Saturday.

Despite its decision to discontinue the Mac Pro, Apple is still selling a few units through its Certified Refurbished store. Here are the details.

David Pogue, a CBS News Sunday Morning correspondent, joins Overtime to discuss his new book, “Apple: The First 50 Years.” Pogue, a former Macworld and New York Times columnist, shares insights into the writing process, interviews with key past and present Apple employees, and offers his thoughts on former CEO Steve Jobs and current CEO Tim Cook.

Apple TV remains arguably the best streaming service for sci-fi fans, with two major sci-fi shows airing now and even more new premieres coming soon.

It is spring 2026, and that magical time of year when the sun is shining, the grass is growing, and flowers bloom. We are heading into near-perfect weather. Spring in the southern US generally brings plenty of showers. It will not be long until the brutal summer heat arrives, with 97 degrees, 90% humidity, full sun, and no rain in the forecast.

Winning against the brutal summer heat with your plants requires a strong foundation right now, and getting them plenty of water consistently is the absolute key to survival. I have generally opposed professionally installed irrigation systems due to the upkeep required. I have long used the Eve Aqua instead. It is a great way to quickly deploy a maintenance-free, Apple Home-enabled sprinkler system.

iOS 26.4 just added brand new widgets for the iPhone’s Home Screen, but you might not know that fairly recently, Apple also upgraded its popular Photos widget in two ways.

Apple has had a jam-packed March so far after launching seven new products and surprisingly announcing an eighth. This week, even more came from Apple before the month wraps up and Apple’s 50th anniversary arrives on April 1.

Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro is a big improvement over the more fussy iPhone 16 Pro. The vapor chamber and switching to aluminum from titanium both make a noticeable difference in sustained performance and improved thermal management. However, my favorite hardware improvement in years isn’t limited to the Pro series.

Apple has hired Google VP Lilian Rincon as its new vice president of Product Marketing for AI, the company tells me.

Apple says Rincon will lead product marketing and product management for its AI platforms, including Apple Intelligence and Siri. She will report directly to Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing.
